Yeah, going through the odds (me -- 1/5 chance of seeing the right house), I think we should no lynch today. Tomorrow, we'll see what info we have (or don't have), and decide what to do from there. I think that we should definitely lynch tomorrow though.

unvote: csergogaby, vote: No lynch

Day Breaks

You all awaken and walk out in to the street feeling full of energy. But something is missing.
You search everywhere but i seems that no one died last night.

It is now day 3 With 6 alive it is again 4 votes to lynch. Have fun

I love it when a good plan comes together.

Halfpint, doctor, where do we go from here?

Dranko20 · Post Post #81 (ISO) » Fri Mar 11, 2005 3:27 pm

I think we all claim, names and all. Seeing as the doctor protected well, and seeing as I am the doctor, Dr Julius Hibbert, and I'll reveal who I protected today.

We pretty much have 2 lynchs to win at this point, assuming 1 mafia yet, because if we lynch wrong today, I die that night, then we have another lynch, very good odds of winning.

Yeah.

a little bit more input guys you should have plenty to talk about.

BrianMcQueso · Post Post #83 (ISO) » Sun Mar 13, 2005 9:12 am

Mass claim it is, then.

I'm Ned Flanders, and, somehow, that makes me a Nurse role. I become a Doctor when the Doctor dies.

Ok, I'm the Comic Book guy. I have a limited investigative role. Each night someone comes into my Comic Shop, and if they are mafia I am told.

Dranko20 · Post Post #85 (ISO) » Sun Mar 13, 2005 5:02 pm

brushhopper, do you have a name, or is "Comic Book guy" your name?

DarkLight140 · Post Post #86 (ISO) » Sun Mar 13, 2005 6:30 pm

I'm Principal Skinner, and am (therefore!?!) a roleblocker. I don't quite get the logic on that, but, hey. I target someone every night, and they're either given no result, or told that their ability failed, as appropriate. As we should probably be sharing results/records, I blocked csergogaby last night and Coron the night before.

brushhopper · Post Post #87 (ISO) » Sun Mar 13, 2005 6:39 pm

Comic Book Guy is my name.

csergogaby · Post Post #88 (ISO) » Sun Mar 13, 2005 9:40 pm

I am a townie, Milhouse Van Houten.
I don't understand why the docotr didn't tell us who he saved last night...
And Comic book guy, you didn't tell us what you know...

halfpint · Post Post #89 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 4:53 am

Hey. Okay, I have no new information that will help us. I thought that I did, but now I realize that I do not.

Let's see ... we're back in the exact same position that we were yesterday since no one died last night. However, this time we have more information so we might want to take our chances and try to lynch today.

brushhopper wrote:Ok, I'm the Comic Book guy. I have a limited investigative role. Each night someone comes into my Comic Shop, and if they are mafia I am told.

This role strikes me as very odd. In a mini-game (that only has 12 people mind you), we're expected to believe that 4 of us had some type of investigative roles? We had a cop (warpdragon) who was sane (if not, that should have been put on the front post I think), me and Narninian, who are/were neighborhood watches, and now brushhopper, claiming a similar type of role to me. That doesn't sit right with me.

Oh, and I can't remember who posted this, but I do get 100% accurate information from my ability (upon clarification from the mod).

So, I don't get a very good feeling from bushhopper, and I don't believe his claim. For now, I'll

vote: brushhopper

, but I would like to hear other thoughts on this.

Dranko20 · Post Post #90 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 5:08 am

I had the same feelings, halfpint, but didn't even want to vote him with some claims unclaimed, thus me asking if he had a name, or was his name just "Comic Book Guy" which screams scum to me.

Also, I protected Halfpint, so I know he's in the clear.

I'm ready to vote brush, so you better talk.

DarkLight140 · Post Post #91 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 6:28 am

(Firstly, halfpint, according to the gender mark under the name, is female. Just a heads-up, Dranko20.

)

I posted the accuracy thing after looking up how the Watch works on the wiki. It lists the watch there as having a 50% chance of getting results if there's only one member watching a house. Apparently, we're better off than I thought.

I'd agree about the "Comic Book Guy" as the name being odd... as far as I can tell, everyone else was given their name. However, a quick search on "Comic Book Guy" revealed the following, courtesy of Wikipedia:

"In an old interview, Matt Groening stated that Comic Book Guy's original name was Louis Lane (a play on Lois Lane's name). Though he was only referred to as "Comic Book Guy" in the show, this was thought to be his real name. A long running gag on the show was to have never revealed Jeff's name (only calling him "Comic Book Guy"). Other characters usually referred to him by name as "Comic Book Guy." The gag concluded on the February 6, 2005 episode, when he told Ned Flanders that "my name is Jeff Albertson, but everyone calls me Comic Book Guy"."

So, I'm not exactly sure what to think. Given that the game started on Feb 24, it's quite possible- and I'd even say fairly likely- that brushhopper was given "Comic Book Guy" as his name, but it does serve as an oddity in the pattern, and his role ability does seem to put the town as a bit investigation-heavy.

Of course, if csergogaby is to be believed, there were 11 non-townie roles and 1 townie. Which, frankly, seems just as implausible. So, I'm a bit torn between the two.

brushhopper · Post Post #92 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 7:48 am

You all can argue over my name, but it is in fact Comic Book guy. There's really nothing left to say about my role, except that of the 3 people that visited my shop I was told none were mafia.

halfpint · Post Post #93 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 7:49 am

Okay, here's the information that I have and the town can help me dissect. I watched csergogaby's house last night. He didn't leave and no one entered.

At first I thought that csergogaby was cleared but then Darklight came on and said he roleblocked him. So, I figured that csergogaby wasn't cleared. But now I am thinking that csergogaby still would have left his house (if scum) to kill (even if there is a roleblocker in the game and the roleblocker targetted him) . I mean the roleblocker role (if to be believed) says that the ability fails. So, the kill wouldn't go through, but csergogaby still would have attempted the kill which means that he would have left the house, right? So, I'm inclined to believe csergogaby's claim.

However, now I am suspicious of Darklight. No one entered csergogaby's house ... wouldn't DL have visited csergogaby's house if he was roleblocking him?

Brush, who visited your shop? If this is true, then you have the potential of clearing some people.

I wouldn't worry too much about his name-- it wasn't until like the 43rd season that we finally learned his actual name, which was changed from Louis Lane to Adam or something regular like that.

Ok, so here's the claim list thus far:

Brian's Claim List, post 94 wrote: Halfpint - Carl - Investigative Mason
Darklight140 - Principal Skinner - Roleblocker
csergogaby - Milhouse - Townie
Dranko20 - Dr. Hibbert - Doc
brush hopper - Comic Book Guy - Limited Investigator
BrianMcQueso - Ned Flanders - Nurse

Confirmed by Death:
Narninian - Lenny Leonard - Neighbourhood Watch
Mastermind of Sin - Nelson Muntz - Mafia
LoudmouthLee - Krusty the clown - Serial killer
Riven - Groundskeeper Willie - Mafia hooligan
Warpdragon - Cheif Clancy Wiggium - Cop
Coron - Moe Szyslak - Vigilante

My bet is that Darklight140 is Mafia (if Groundskeeper Willie is scum, then it's almost painfully obvious that Skinner would be too), and csergogaby is scum (the

only

townie? c'mon now!).

In a 12 person game with all pro-town roles having night choices, I could see there being two 2-person mafia groups and a serial killer.

What do you guys think?

Dranko20 · Post Post #95 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 2:49 pm

Sorry halfpint, I didn't notice

Ned Flanders would be a SK in my game, but since we already have one, I guess thats outta the bag.

Let us see, the mafia so far is.. Groundskeeper Willie, and Nelson Muntz, who would be the perfect godfather for this trio?

In my opinion, probably Darklight. Skinner does not seem like a roleblocker in my opinion, So I'm ready to vote Darklight.

Whatcha'all Think?

Firstly, how could Flanders

ever

be a Serial Killer? I could list off about 5-6 better characters for that role.

Secondly, I don't think Groundskeeper Willie and Nelson are in it together. I'd more likely pair Willie with Skinner and Nelson with... Kearny? Jimbo? You know, one of those other bullies. I think we've got two seperate mafia groups in our hands.

Personally, I

maybe

could see Principal Skinner as a roleblocker (detention, anyone?), but I can't see a basic Townie in this setup without any others.

halfpint · Post Post #97 (ISO) » Mon Mar 14, 2005 6:10 pm

I'm not so sure about all of this. If we are looking at role names and trying to decipher from that, then how/why was Krusty a serial killer? I thought he was a good guy.

brush hopper - Comic Book Guy - Limited Investigator

Something is very strnag ein this claim.... all of us have names, even the clown, only this guy doesn't have a name... something like Bubu the Comicbook guy
In this case:
I

Vote: brush hopper

brushhopper · Post Post #99 (ISO) » Tue Mar 15, 2005 5:05 am

You're all voting me because my name doesn't sound right? Do any of you watch the simpsons? The comic book guy is called Comic Book Guy. You've hardly said anything this game csergogaby, and you claim to be the only one with no abilities. I want to hear more from you. And in hopes to clear someone:

Night 1: Coron , was told not mafia.
Night 2: Halfpint , was told not mafia.
Night 3: No one (no one came by that night)

If you guys want to lynch me because of my name, please find another reason.
